Tipping Competition2024

History is expected to be made this weekend in the competition every league player aspires to make the grade in when the Western Reds play Campbelltown in round 3 of the Jim Beam Cup.

On current form the Reds appear to have the edge over the Eagles, having scored an average of 20 points per game while losing by an average margin of 7 points since the season kicked off.

Last week the Reds were disadvantaged by an 11-3 penalty count so if they can master a bit more discipline and get a bit more luck with a few other decisions, they will be in a strong position to play their first game in Perth with a win next to their name.

The Reds have big wraps on Steve Gheradi as an impact player while Ryan Dickson is also viewed as a pivotal player for the team.

Will the Western Australian crew create history on Saturday April 12? There’s only one way to find out.

Get off your backsides, line up in a long queue at your local train station in hot weather and head out to Campbelltown Stadium to watch the most anticipated game of Rugby League being played this weekend.
